I wish I knew that before trading him in and now its too late to reverse it, I just hope he can keep Naiqama out for my sake and the Tigers.

I am pretty convinced he will keep a place in that team somewhere for the near future. Ivan was talking him up in the post-match press conference.

When Housos was screening I lived on Awaroa Road Sunnyvale but now I live in Glendene which is just up the road & live off Tirimoana Road. I actually grew up in Glen Eden. Of course Glen Eden is the home of Glenora Rugby League Club.

Ha! I've got mates currently living in Miltonia and Kokiri, just around the corner

He was better than Kevin.

Ivan is a great man-manager. He knows what to say to the player and knows what to say to the press to get the best out of the player.

Naiqama is a lock in the 17. Thompson or Tui will play fullback and that's most likely Thompson.
Marsters seems to be a lock in the centres.
The other two spots are between Nofo, MWZ and Fonua. I wouldn't be betting any of them having a spot sewn up.

My favourite thing about Fonua is his work off the ball. You see him running back to position. You see so many other players across the league walk to get back onside or walk laterally to get back to their spot in the line when they're on offence. Mahe is always showing intent.

- did a weights session the day after the broke his arm
- needed two teammates to forcibly stop him from returning to field with torn ACL
- played part of a semi with a lacerated kidney. #nrl

Small world haha.

I will be holding and playing Rein... Sad face

Alternatively, could reverse the Brimstone trade and make Rein Surgess but cbf

I'll possibly have to decide between a benched Rein vs Brimson in my 17 this week. Thoughts?

Also, it's fuckin cold in Melbourne!

My decision as well Mulvy mate... Thinking I may just take the gamble on Brimson

I could reverse him but I kinda want the bloke. Not so much for his points, just as a base price cash grab ready for bupgrades next week. I'm still also holding Dugan and Soro at the moment tho so what would I know! Haha

Cowboys feel Linnett is maybe another two or three weeks away from returning from his torn pec. Hasn’t started contact yet. https://twitter.com/Tuxy81/status/994800939197501441?s=19

Isaac Luke has been officially ruled out.

Issac Luke ruled out for @NZWarriors this weekend after suffering dislocated shoulder last round. Most return in 3-6 weeks, but Luke was reportedly close to playing so wouldn’t be surprised if he returns in Rd11

When your desperate for Linnett to return you know times are tough. He is a good defender but in attack, meh. He is better then O'Neill but that does not say much.
